Anyone work in Government?

I'm in pseudo-government. We receive our primary funding from the federal government and we are required to report to the state government. Plus, we have representatives of various government agencies on-site at our location. The organization is non-profit, however, which is why I call it "pseudo-government."

I must say, I would prefer to slip over to the government side of things because they have incredible salaries and ridiculous benefits (this is NY). They also have a lot more resources available to them to get the work done.

My counterpart in one government agency has less responsibility and more pay. I'll take that job! The folks in my organization haven't gotten a raise - cost of living or otherwise - in ten years. The government employees are getting money thrown at them on a constant basis.
